The Saintfield Secret

This neighbour of his, who called himself Omaru, had begun to get all conversant with Gojin, who was trying to find a polite way to get rid of him.

Gojin sighed, then said, "Thank you," as he swiftly collected the biscuits from the handsome man's hand.

He gave a final slight bow and proceeded to close the door, then Omaru added, "I hope we can meet for dinner tomorrow evening..."

Gojin didn't reply and simply shut the door, bolting it from the inside. His neighbour heard the slats clicking into place and the lock mechanism engage.

Hmm... he said inwardly, turning towards the hallway and heading downstairs to his rented room.

Now free once again, Gojin went to the bathroom. He also heard Toki snoring away on the couch and, being the kind to shift positions every now and then when comfortable, nearly fell off the couch.

After locking the bathroom door again, he sighed deeply.
